A group of people entered the headquarters, but Clovis was the only one who followed Yang Hui into his office.
"Why did you come here in person?" Yang Hui poured a cup of black tea and handed it to Clovis and asked.
"It's been three years and you don't miss me at all?" Clovis asked Yang Hui resentfully.
"Stop it!" A feeling of bad habits arose in Yang Hui's heart, and Yang Hui had the urge to vomit, "Don't be so ambiguous, I know your orientation is normal."
"...You get out of here!"
"Can't you change the sentence? Your vocabulary is really poor." Yang Hui said contemptuously.
"Because I am a civilized person, different from a vulgar person like you."
"Yes, yes, this civilized little brother knows how to fool girls at the age of 7. Shouldn't he be a beast in disguise?"
"You! Very good, Yang Hui, you succeeded in irritating me, let's duel!"
"You can't even beat me with one hand."
"So you can only stand and you are not allowed to fight back!"
"Am I stupid?"
"Otherwise I'll tell Yuffie that you tricked me into giving her a bath when she was little!"
"Pfft~! You...you..." Yang Hui pointed at Clovis with trembling fingers. This guy has no martial ethics!
After playing around for a while, Clovis returned to the topic and answered Yang Hui's question: "If only the fleet comes, Neil may not necessarily listen to you, and my [Stars] Knights will not follow. The combat power
It may not be enough.”
"Not bad, it seems you have learned a lot in the past three years." Yang Hui said happily.
Neil is not the person arranged by Yang Hui, but a talent discovered by Clovis himself. If Clovis himself does not come, even if Neil will obey Yang Hui's order, he will not complete it 100%. After all, under his
In my heart, Clovis is the most important, and how to preserve my strength to return to [TEN] and continue to serve Clovis is the top priority.
There is also the [Stars] Knights that Clovis formed in the past three years. It is definitely not as good as Cornelia's [Rose Witch] Knights, and it is even worse than Yang Hui's [Nightmare] Knights, but it is still
It has reached an upper-middle level and is a strong team.
In the battle of Sakura Country, Yang Hui does not intend to fight a long-term war of attrition. He plans to achieve his goal within half a month. Different from the original plot, it is not just about defeating Sakura Country and surrendering, but also the territory of Bunitalia.
It is still only a small area, and he plans to completely capture all the areas north of Mount Fuji within half a month.
With the troops currently in Yang Hui's hands, it would be no problem to defeat them, but he does not have enough manpower to receive, manage and guard them.
The two fleets brought by Clovis just met Yang Hui's needs, but there was a premise, that is, they completed all tasks with dedication.
There is also the [Stars] Knights brought by Clovis. As an excellent knights, Yang Hui has more choices and changes in his combat plan.
It was precisely because of these two points that Clovis personally brought people to support him. If it were him before, he would not have considered so much.
"Besides, you don't know how annoying the local nobles have been in the past three years, especially those on my mother's side." As he spoke, Clovis showed an expression of disgust and disgust.
Clovis was the fifth prince to hold real power. He stood out among the princes and princesses, and naturally he was greeted by sycophants.
The nobles of Bunitalia are very shrewd. The big nobles never put their eggs in one basket. Nobles who are neither good nor low. Nobles who are not valued by Schneizel need to find new leaders if they want to go further.
, and the small nobles below also have to rely on one party to protect themselves.
Therefore, in the past three years, the Governor's Palace in Clovis was full of people, and the threshold was almost broken by the nobles who were clinging to it.
Generally speaking, if a prince wants to consolidate his position, he will recruit good nobles as his vassals to form an alliance of interests.
But Clovis had been influenced by Yang Hui since he was a child, and he was not interested in these nobles who were seeking fame and power. After some investigation, he directly rejected the nobles who were glamorous on the surface but worse than pigs and dogs secretly.
The nobles only gave a friendly attitude and did not express their acceptance clearly.
At first, this also puzzled the nobles of Bunitalia, as if Clovis could ensure that his status remained unshakable without them needing them at all. This seemed to them to be completely impossible. After all,
Clovis is far away from the core of the imperial capital, and he needs someone in the imperial capital to help him pay attention to the trends in the imperial court.
But now... Clovis directly showed through actions that he really didn't need it.
Why? Because his ally is Yang Hui, and one of them is far superior to the other nobles.
What? Central or no one? Does Cornelia count?
Although Cornelia often leads troops to fight in various places, she is also nominally a member of the central government.
Therefore, now the nobles of the imperial capital can see clearly that the most powerful force in the empire is no longer the Schneizel faction, but a group of common interests with Cornelia, Yang Hui and Clovis as the core of the triangle.
"But if you do this, it will only make them flock to you more."
"I know, I just want to give myself a holiday." Clovis said helplessly. Of course he knew that his power was greater, and those nobles were even less likely to let him go. After all, he and Cornelia were still the same.
Compared with Yang Hui, he is the most talkative person.
"I can see you work hard."
"Didn't Badr report everything to you?"
"It's not Badr's report." Yang Hui stood up and looked through the window at the fleet docked at the port, as well as the orderly Knights of the Stars, and patted Clovis's visibly thicker and stronger
Back, "Badr can't do this."
"That's because your training method is effective." Clovis shrugged.
[Nightmare] The training method of the Knights is no secret now. Except for the self-respecting Knights of the Round Table, the elite knights of Bunitalia have all copied it. Even the cabinet meeting has seen the effect and has adopted this training method.
The intensity was slightly reduced and distributed to all ordinary troops as a standard training procedure.
Clovis is obviously much stronger now than he was three years ago. He is no longer delicate and immature, but more mature and heroic. Clovis used to be a delicate and artistic young man, but now he is a strong and sunny tough guy.
If possible, who would be willing to be a mascot all the time? He did hand over the military power to Yang Hui, but it doesn't mean that he is really willing to be a cheerleader in the rear.
Yang Hui brought Clovis, fleet commander Neil, and Knight Commander Garrett of the [Stars] Knights to the combat headquarters.
"Your Highness Yang Hui, His Highness Clovis."
"Report the situation."
"Yes, your highness. At present, the enemy forces are mainly concentrated in Ominato Naval Port and Kure Military Port. The Sakura Kingdom Fleet in Ominato Naval Port has strangled the Tsugaru Strait. Our first fleet is difficult to maintain the deterrence of Itsukushima Base. Itsukushima Base
Most of the elites have been sent to support the front line, mainly concentrated in Iwate, Autumn and Yamagata. The Sasebo fleet has left the Ominato fleet and retreated, cruising along the line from Murakami to Eishui, with enough firepower to cover Yamanashi.
The Kure Fleet and the remaining Yokosuka Fleet stayed in Shizuoka without any action.
On the army side, large units were gathered in Aichi, Nagano and Itsukushima, and smaller units were based at Yoshigo, Showa, Yonezawa, Oishida and Harano as outposts."
"How is the situation in Hokkaido?" Yang Hui asked. Now that the war situation has entered a calm stage, Sakura Country is unable to regain its lost territory, and Bunitalia does not have enough troops to attack more territories. The only thing that will be in danger is,
It is the "Rose Witch" Knights who fight alone in Hokkaido.
"I had regular contact with Her Majesty Cornelia this morning. Due to the threat from the Ominato fleet, the [Rose Witch] Knights targeted the northern region and did not encounter any stubborn resistance."
"Well... Neil, lead the [TEN] second fleet to Miyagi, join the main force and launch an attack from the rear. Within a week, cooperate with the first fleet to capture the Ominato naval port."
"..." Neil did not agree immediately, but looked at Clovis. After seeing Clovis nodded, he replied: "Yes, your highness."
"The escort fleet with the order to surrender will set off from Yokosuka with Yokohama's troops and attack Shizuoka. I don't want to annihilate the enemy, but I must drive away the Kure fleet and the Yokosuka fleet!"
"Yes, your highness."
"One-third of Yamanashi's main force will be divided into the direction of Nagano. The speed should not be too fast, as long as it attracts Yoshigo's attention. Tochigi's defenders also advanced slowly to attract Showa's attention."
"Yes, your highness."
"Clovis, are you going to sit here or come with me?" Yang Hui turned to look at Clovis with an expectant smile on his face. Clovis's reinforcements have arrived. Bunitali
Ya already has enough troops to destroy all the enemy forces in the northern part of Sakura Country, and Yang Hui no longer intends to be a spectator.
"Of course with you!" Clovis replied without hesitation, which was also the answer Yang Hui wanted.
"No, Your Highness, this is too dangerous!" Clovis agreed, but Neil and Knight Commander Garrett objected. They knew that Clovis had been participating in the training of the [Stars] Knights, and he also had good reputations.
combat effectiveness, but they still do not want Clovis to put himself in danger.
"Okay, follow Yang Hui's order, and you are my knights. I rely on you to protect me when I am in danger." Clovis waved his hand to interrupt the two of them, and said to them seriously.
"But……"
"Enough, this is an order!"
"Ye...Yes, your highness."
Yang Hui stood aside and watched them with interest, feeling that Neil and Garrett were pretty good, at least loyal.
"Yang Hui, give the order, I can't wait any longer." Clovis said to Yang Hui excitedly.
Yang Hui nodded with a smile, picked up the communicator, and contacted the resting [Nightmare] Knights: "Lejetta, everyone is ready to attack. Get my body ready."
